    Properties

    branchingRatio?: NumberValue<"quantity">

    The probability fraction of the parent nucleus decaying via this specific mode.

    energy?: NumberValue<"energy">

    The total energy released during the nuclear decay process (Q-value).

    mode: DecayMode

    The primary mechanism of the nuclear transformation (e.g., alpha, beta-minus).

    radiation?: RadiationType[]

    The types of ionizing radiation emitted during the decay.
